Bellos movimientos, por Frank Stanford
De pronto, una muchacha cruza sus piernas
Detrás de una ventana del cine de tu amor,
Mastica su goma de mascar y dice promete que no te irás
Siempre vuelve, aunque te venda el mismo boleto mil veces.
Suddenly a young lady crosses her legs / Behind a window of the movie house of your love, / Smacks her gum and says promise not to leave, / Always come back, even if I sell you the same ticket a thousand times.
Detrás de una ventana del cine de tu amor,
Mastica su goma de mascar y dice promete que no te irás
Siempre vuelve, aunque te venda el mismo boleto mil veces.

Traducción de Carlos Almonte
Suddenly a young lady crosses her legs / Behind a window of the movie house of your love, / Smacks her gum and says promise not to leave, / Always come back, even if I sell you the same ticket a thousand times.
